I guess life can be beautiful afterall :)

I have gotten back all my papers, some results were expected, some were not. I got U (Ungraded) for Math. Now that was kind of expected, but sometimes you just can't help feeling the slap of pain reality deals you as you stare at the red ink on your script.

Next was Chemistry. I got a S for that. Now that really wasn't just a slap in the face. I felt like I got ran over by a truck. After weeks of mugging, I can't believe that I got just a mere Sub-pass for Chemistry. Without warning, tears flooded my eyes and threatened to spill out. But I held it in by sheer will. I am so not gonna cry in the lecture theatre.

Chinese was a tiny pleasant surprise. I topped the class for Paper 1, and overall, I got B.

GP was a little disappointing. Paper 2 especially. But I got a C anyway.

Economics just about blasted me off my feet. For the mid-years, I had obtained a U grade. I was so afraid history was gonna repeat itself. When Mr Aaron Tan was distributing the papers, Sabby and I were gripping each others' hands so tightly. Mr Tan saw it and went like "My gosh, relax man!" Hahaha. Then he gave me my paper and I nearly fainted when I turned the page over.

I frickin' bloody topped the class!!

I couldn't get over my shock. My heart was pumping so fast and I was trembling and shaking as I stared at my grade. I wanted to cry. Then Sabby hugged me, yelling "Congrats!!" and I just felt like screaming.

And, I got a C for Biology.

For those feeling sad, cheer up guys! It's not the end! I'm sure we all gave it our best! Don't lose hope! :)

For the first time in my life, I watched 3 movies within a month: Little Miss Sunshine, Death Note and World Trade Centre.

I watched World Trade Centre (WTC) with Marcus yesterday. It was a good movie. Very touching, emotional and sad. I was surprised I didn't cry, but I did tear a bit though. I guess I was too happy to cry (I got back Econs yesterday afterall). Haha. Great movie, great soundtrack, great cast.

After the movie, Marc went home and I went to National Library to get some references for our Written Report. As I stepped through the glass doors of the library, the usual blast of icy cold air greeted me and my sneakers were making small noises on the polished marble floor (was it marble? I can't remember. Haha). I went up to the Reference levels and after battling with the lockers for some time, managed to get my bag safely locked up. With a piece of paper and a pen, I strode into the Reference area.

I don't know why, but seeing shelves and shelves, and volumes and volumes of books towering over me, surrounding me, just makes me feel so happy. They exude such a sense of comfort and I felt so soothed and gee... even hugged! Hugged by books. Okay, now you think I'm asinine. But yeah, it was great and I was happy to be surrounded by books. And now you think I'm just stark raving mad :)
